Well, I am sitting in Philadelphia and at this time tomorrow I will be heading on my way to Amsterdam, then eventually to Nairobi on the 20th. I finished my staging classes today, which were pretty informative, get also somewhat nerve-wracking. I guess the reality of my adventure is really starting to hit home, which is a good thing. I am very excited but nervous for it all. It has been a lot of fun meeting all of the different people that I will be training with for the next 10 weeks. We are a very diverse bunch from all over, different ages, with different stories, so I am excited to get to know them better. We had a lot of fun putting together skits, drawings, etc. I had my last American meal tonight, and just picked off each others plates to try everything before we left. It's crazy to think that I am actually leaving tomorrow... I really appreciate everyone's support as I am heading off. The encouragement has really blessed me, so thanks.
I will update more about the adventure when I arrive in Nairobi. We will be there for a few days before heading to our training site.
Safe journeys and I will be writing soon... as long as I can find an internet cafe. Wish me luck!
